Chapter 21: Hell’s Situation
‘Sigh’ ‘Whisper’ “For fucking…… ‘Small shout’ Tonight is just one fine damn productive evening!!!”(Diuscrucis)
Getting up from the recliner I make my way towards the stone door. When I walk through it I search the hallway and see three women walking towards me while entering every room they pass. Seeing them down the hall, I scratch my head and try to remember where I saw them before.
{Lulu. Aren't those three the female heroes that we met like a year ago?}(Diuscrucis)
{I think they are. They look like shit compared to what they looked like when we first met them. Where’s the retard from back then? He was tomo’s brother I think.}(Lulu)
{Don’t know. Let’s ask.}(Diuscrucis)
Walking towards the women with a slight frown on my face I take a closer look at them. The one leading the group is a black haired woman with a huge chest size. She has brown eyes and her hair only goes slightly past her shoulders. Her skin is pale with some bruises clearly visible on her skin. She stands at about five foot five. She is wearing a gray shirt that only covers everything over her stomach. She has jeans with holes in it and some worn out looking sneakers. In her left hand is a flashlight and her right hand has a blue glow stick. The two women behind her are both wearing brown rags that look like mage robes. The one on the left is a blond haired, blue eyed girl with freckles covering a fair portion of her heavily tanned skin on each side of her face. She has long black hair that goes halfway down her back and a ribbon is tied around her left arm. She stands at about four foot eleven with a decent size bust. The girl on the right is a yellowish skinned girl with blue eyes. She has small breasts and is wearing broken smoggy glasses. She had straight black hair that goes down to her shoulders. She stands at a short five foot one.
{Let’s see if we can talk without having to fight.}(Diuscrucis)
{Good luck Dad!}(Lulu)
Stopping a few feet in front of them, I call out while changing my appearance to look close to what I looked like when I first met them. I change to be 6 ft. 5 inches tall, tan skinned man, with velvet eyes, short black and white hair and a scaled black arm.
“Morning ladies. What brings you here?”(Diuscrucis)
‘Audible gasp’ “It’s you! Where is Revaline!?”(Lead girl)
Saying this, the two girls in the back take several steps back while the lead girl brandishes her weapon with both hands.
{I guess we can’t talk it out then.}(Lulu)
‘Sigh’ {I don’t have time for this.}(Diuscrucis)
Summoning my own glow stick, I turn it on. ‘Vuuum’ ‘Vuum’ One end of my glow stick extends with a purple light. The other end extends with a black light with white dots in it. Spinning the stick in circular motions, I drop to a ready position to fight. As I do, dark imposing music starts playing in the background.
‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Dada’ ‘Da’ ‘Dadaaaa’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Dada’ ‘Da’ ‘Dadaaaa’ ’Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Dadada’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Dadada’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Da’ ‘Dada’ ‘Da’ ‘Dadaaaa’
Hearing my phone's ringtone, I get ready to turn it off when the girl with the glow stick turns off her weapon and raises both her hands into the air while saying something outrageous.
“This guy has background music. We’re screwed.”(Lead girl)
‘Sob’ “I don’t want to die again!”(Girl on the right)
{Cowards!}(Diuscrucis/Lulu)
Standing up straight again, I pull out my phone and answer the call.
“Sup boss. What can I help you with on this fine morning?”(Diuscrucis)
“I’m assuming west zone is a mess because of you.”(Karma)
“More or less. Is there a problem with that?”(Diuscrucis)
“There isn't. I was looking at west zone through a window earlier and everything was on fire.”(Karma)
“How does it look now?”(Diuscrucis)
“Let me check…………….. Everything is still on fire.”(Karma)
“I see.”(Diuscrucis)
“Do you need help over there? West zone looks more like a mess than normal.”(Karma)
“No. I got it under control. Just give me a few more weeks and everything will be taken care of.”(Diuscrucis)
“If you say so. Good luck.”(Karma)
“Thanks.”(Diuscrucis)
Hanging up the phone, I put it away and look at the three women in front of me.
“Let’s try this again. A little less violent this time. Morning ladies. What brings you here?”(Diuscrucis)
“We are here because we need Revaline’s help.”(Lead girl)
“What about her brother? What was his name?..... Greg was it?”(Diuscrucis)
“He’s the reason why we are here! He has gone crazy trying to save everyone he meets and….”(Lead girl)
“And?”(Diuscrucis)
“We can’t keep him under control anymore. If this keeps up, he might do something insane.”(Lead girl)
“I see…. Unfortunately Tomo can’t help you Right now.”(Diuscrucis)
‘ Yelling’ “What? Why not?”(Lead girl)
“She is busy doing something important. It is a really delicate procedure that if interrupted, will cause her to go insane or make an unfixable mistake.”(Diuscrucis)
“So how long do we need to wait?”(Lead girl)
“A few days to several months. It all depends on how far Tomo is going with it. So as her teacher, I will help you girls out.”(Diuscrucis)
“Really!?”(All girls)
“Yup. But first, introductions are in order. I am Diuscrucis De Reaper. The Horseman of Death. You three are?”(Diuscrucis)
‘Lead girl’ “I am Clementine Valentine the third. The Bringer of Hope. Please call me Vali Mr. Reaper.”(Vali)
‘Girl on the left’ “I am Linora Caballero. The Caring. Please call me Lora.” ‘Deep bow’ (Lora)
‘Girl on the right’ “I I I’m Akane Yoko. The. The. The. The Crybaby.”(Akane)
{I gave my profession and they give me their titles….}(Diuscrucis)
{I wouldn’t blame them. I mean your profession does sound like a title.}(Lulu)
“Well now that introduction are out of the way, let’s head to the kitchen. We have lots to talk about and I need some coffee considering I have work in less than an hour.”(Diuscrucis)

With that we talked in the kitchen about everything that has happened to them and I got some coffee.”(Diuscrucis)
“Hay, love. Why does Suzi have two hearts? Is that normal for you Demons?”(Crescendo)
“No. She just ripped mine out of my chest and put it in hers.”(Diuscrucis)
“How?”(Crescendo)
“She dragged him to the medical bay, pulled out his heart, and performed self operation to put it in her own chest.”(Samantha)
“What!? Why aren't you dead?!”(Crescendo)
“The healers are the best of the best. They were healing me faster than I was dying.”(Diuscrucis)
‘Audible gasp of excitement’ (Pi)
“We're not doing that Pi!”(Samantha)
“Awwww.”(Pi)
If you find this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the infringement.
“So does anyone want to explain to me how things escalated to the point that Suzi ended up in the medical bay?”(Diuscrucis)
“...... Sure but I’m going to need to start a bit before it happened to continue this group story time.”(Samantha)
“Go ahead.”(Diuscrucis)
“Well…..”(Samantha)
_____________________________________________________________________
* Several thousand years earlier -
* Inside the Devil’s war room -
* Samantha’s POV -
‘Boom’ “Give me your reports quickly everyone. A giant robot appeared on the outskirts of Hell and it is slaughtering all my citizens.”(Suzi)
“Understood.”(Generals)
Blowing passed the double doors leading into the room, Suzi speed walks in and takes a seat on a black throne. The room we are in is large with a red carpeted floor, beige walls, and a blue domed roof. The center of the room has a large round table that extends 4 meters in any direction from the center. It is a magical map that can scan and display various parts of a realm. The major flaws with it is that it can’t show living creatures and it can only display Hell and parts of Terra. It is unable to show any other locations. Sitting at the head of the table is Suzi. Her spiral black and white hair that goes halfway down her back seems to be burnt along the tips and is still smoking. She needs to cut her hair again. Her black throne is made of burnt steel and it has a crown as the centerpiece on the top of its back. Sitting across from her is Pinocchio. The old man is looking at a broken, featureless doll and is moving his eyes like he is reading something. His wooden chair is small and plain. The top of his chair has a large doll with many smaller dolls surrounding it, and each of the smaller dolls are connected to the larger one’s hands by tiny strings. Pinocchio himself looks just like he did the first time I met him but now he is wearing fancy leaf robes. The man in front of me is large and muscular. He has short, dirty blond hair and a short boxed beard. He has sky blue eyes and no left nipple. He normally wears heavily armored pants and boots. He has fingerless gloves and can only think with his dick. Why Suzi recruited this shirtless womanizer after she helped him kill some runaway Angel experiment called Grendel is beyond me. His chair is made of bones and animal fur. The top of his chair has has a long green arm with four clawed fingers around a broken sword. Last is me on my blue chair. It has no arms like the other three in the room. The top of my chair has a featureless angel beating the shit out of another angel. The one winning the fight is mounting the other and is in the middle of punching the other in the face. The losing side has broken wings, both arms twisted in the wrong direction, and a missing leg……. I need to talk to Suzi about this.
“I'll start then. Suzi, The Elves have agreed to assist us in whatever way you need. The only thing they ask for in return is that you send men to protect their major cities once a week for their weekly parties. Beyond that, full surveillance across the city of Dinsor has been completed. We are now spreading to the villages outside of the city.”(Pinocchio)
“Good. Beowulf?”(Suzi)
‘Deep masculine voice.’ “The training of the new recruits is progressing smoothly. Human forces have been forced out of Hell and all the realm gates are being closely monitored. Weapon and armor improvements have been implemented into our current equipment and improvements are being made as we speak. Our new forward army stands at 74 thousand and will be ready to march within the Next few days.”(Beowulf)
“Good. I want them to be fully prepared to march at the end of the week. I don’t want a repeat of the last major battle three months ago. We won't always be able to have Samantha save our asses. Speaking of which, Samantha. What brings you here? Under orders from Loki or is this just a friendly visit?”(Suzi)
“I’m actually here to tell you about the giant robot you mentioned earlier.”(Samantha)
“Excellent! What can you tell me about it?”(Suzi)
Showing her a slight smile I move my hands over the table and zoom in on the enemy's current position. After a few moments, a large holographic version of Colossus can be seen walking slowly on the table. It is currently walking over a city and is making a beeline directly for the capital. With the target clearly visible, I start telling everyone what I know.
“The robot was created by multiple groups of Angel scientists that wanted a trump card against your armies. Using the reports that they collected from most of your victories, they made it specifically to kill Demons. It is made of magically reinforced steel and it’s outer body his a magic barrier around it. This magic shield can block physical attacks to an extreme degree. It’s magic defense is equally as high. The only way to get past it is to drain it’s magic supply. The weakest points on this thing are it’s eyes and where the top of the spine connects horizontally with the brain stem. The Angels were having some successful field tests in Heaven but, they lost control of it shortly after they sent it to Hell. Now it’s running wild and the scientists are being sent to prison for creating a weapon that can’t be controlled.”(Samantha)
Zooming out, I show Colossus as a much smaller hologram and make a dotted line showing his probable path in front of him. I also make a solid line showing where he has been.
“It has 300 more loops to do before it reaches the capital. We have a few weeks before it reaches us.”(Beowulf)
“It’s best we take it out now. It could be a distraction for us later.”(Samantha)
“Made to kill Demons huh? Ok. Then it looks like we have some work ahead of us. Everyone's dismissed.”(Suzi)
Saying that Suzi got up and left the room. When the doors close, these two perverts turn towards me and start talking.
“So have you reconsidered my offer little bird? I promise to take good care of you.”(Beowulf)
Oh gods. This again…..
“I said it once and I will say it again. I’m not interested in you jackass.”(Samantha)
“I’m telling you man. Stop trying. You will only get yourself hurt.”(Pinocchio)
“Come on Pinocchio. Don’t tell me you don’t want some of that hot ass.”(Beowulf)
“I do but I don’t want to be like the last poor guy who tried to take advantage of her.”(Pinocchio)
“What happened?”(Beowulf)
“He touched my ass so I ripped off his dick and shoved it down his throat.”(Samantha)
“The worst part of it is that she did that as a warning. A female officer got skinned alive when she tried to save the man from choking to death.”(Pinocchio)
“Haha! Excellent! I always like my women with a fire in them. It makes it more fun when they finally fall under my mighty masculine charms!”(Beowulf)
“You should listen to the old man and besides. The masculine charms you speak of will never be able to impress anyone who has experienced real charms. Which reminds me. How are those children treating you? They must hold you so high in comparison to all the other men they fucked before you….. Oh wait. They wouldn’t be able to because they never had anyone else.”(Samantha)
“Ow. You need some ice man? Cause that’s got to burn. ‘Whispers’ I am not that old…..”(Pinocchio)
“You can only say that because you have never experienced sex yourself.”(Beowulf)
‘Twitch’ “Ex fucking scuse you?”(Samantha)
‘Slight smirk’ “You didn’t hear me? I said, I can make your virgin ass feel so good that you will no longer even think about other men.”(Beowulf)
Hearing this bastard say that, I jump at him from across the room.
‘Sigh’ “You shouldn't have said that.”(Pinocchio)
‘Crash’ ‘Snap’ ‘Snap’ “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”(Beowulf)
Crashing into Beowulf. We blow through his chair and land on the floor. Pinning him down, I snap both his arms right above the elbow and start beating his face in. After several minutes of wailing on him, his face is bruised and bleeding. Most of his face is heavily swollen and my hands are covered in blood. Grabbing the top part of his jaw, I talk to him as quietly as I am currently able to.
‘Yelling’ “If you say something like that again or try to forcefully take my first then I swear to all the gods in my house that I will fucking destroy you!”(Samantha)
‘Crunch’ ‘Sobbing’ “Ahhhhhh haaaaa haaaa!”(Beowulf)
Crushing his upper jaw and tossing most of his top teeth to the side. I get up and start walking towards the door.
“Old man, stop sitting there pretending this is not your problem and get this fucker to a hospital!”(Samantha)
Not waiting for a reply. I leave the war room and jog over to the armory. When I arrive, I see Suzi wearing her black helmetless knight armor and is currently looking for her black greatsword. The room is relatively large with an extremely tall roof that is over a hundred or so meters tall. All the walls are covered with weapons and there are several fully functional vehicles in here as well. Sparsely scattered throughout the room are display cases with either extremely powerful weapons or items with major family value. For example one glass case has a gatling gun that fires bullets so fast that even stopping time can’t stop their movement. In another case, there is a mask that used to belong to the first Devil. It has no abilities and is useless for anything but decoration. Stepping into the room, I walk over to a display case that has a broken weapon in it. The only pieces of said weapon are some fragments of a red stick on the floor and a large cracked bird skull with a sharpened beak propped up on a small stand. The beak has a dull tip. The sign in front of it says “Don’t repair. Leave as is.”
“Suzi, I want to change my chair’s centerpiece.”(Samantha)
“Why? It suits you so well.”(Suzi)
“It’s my chair and I want to sit in something that doesn’t look like I pick a fight with everyone I meet.”(Samantha)
“You say that but, that is usually what happens to people who piss you off. Also that chair stays. It serves as a great warning to all my generals that see you. Now let’s go destroy a robot.”(Suzi)
With a large black sword in hand, Suzi walks passed me and towards a helicopter. Glancing at the display case one last time, I follow Suzi while wondering why no one wants to talk about why it is there. All I know is that it was a weapon used by Diuscrucis before something happened that caused him to stop using it.
“Let’s head out.”(Samantha)
Getting on the helicopter, I look up as the roof moves and we take flight into the air.
______________________________________________________________________________
* Several hours later -
After several hours of flight we see Colossus in the distance.
“Watch my back.”(Suzi)
“No problem.”(Samantha)
Putting the helicopter on autopilot, we open the helicopter doors and jump out. Spreading our wings after falling several dozen meters, we start flying at high speed towards Colossus. As we get closer to it, I see a white streak going through the air and towards Suzi. Flapping my wing harder. I intercept the light and create a shockwave when my weapon collides with it. After being pushed back, I look at the Angel flying in front of me a bit closer. He has pure black hair, white skin, black eyes, and sharp teeth. His halo is a radiant yellow and he has four pairs of wings. He is wearing brown sandals and a white leotard.
“An Angelic Demon working under God. I’m surprised he would allow a non-purebreed to reach the Seraph rank. I thought that guy likes his whole follow me and me alone bullshit?”(Samantha)
‘Musical/girly voice’ “I am Satan and I will kill all heretics in the name of our one true God. Stand down Valkyrie. I have no quarrel with you.”(Satan)
“No.”(Samantha)
“So be it.”(Satan)
Pulling a harp from behind his back, he starts playing a calm melody. As he does, arrows of light starts shooting at me from his harp. Flying to the side I start flying at him while swinging my sword at him. With each swing an arch of magic flies at him. As my magic projectiles get closer to him, he glides to the side and briefly plays a different song. As he does, my magic attacks stop in mid air and fly back at me. Swinging my sword I block my own attacks and am pushed back by the shockwaves. Before I rush at him again, I stop and listen to the world around me because I didn’t hear a single collision of my attacks hitting me. I felt the force but I couldn’t hear it. Listening for a few seconds while avoiding light arrows, I realise that I can’t hear anything. It is dead quiet. I can’t hear anything but the calm melody being played. Dive bombing towards the ground to avoid more arrows. I look towards Colossus just in time to see it hit Suzi with a backhand and send her flying. Changing my course, I fly at Suzi. As I am approaching her, the music changes into a more intense song and pillars of light start to fall all around me. Weaving my way around them, I grab Suzi with a one arm body hug and spin. As I do, I change my sword into a spear and launch it at Satan who was several dozen meter diagonally above me. The spear went through the air so fast that it tore a hole through three of his left wings and snapped the fourth one in half. With his wings broken, he starts falling in the air and his music stops. With the stop of his music I can hear Suzi groaning in pain and Satan screaming.
“Ha! Take that you fucker!”(Samantha)
Ignoring Satan. I tightly hold Suzi with one hand and fly back to the helicopter. As I approach it, I catch my weapon as it starts to lose altitude. Putting it away, I get in the helicopter and activate the emergency teleport button. After a few seconds, there is a flash of red light and we are back in the armory. Looking at Suzi I see that her arms and legs are bent at weird angles, her chest seems to be caved in and she is bleeding through every open hole on her body. Diving out the door and leaving the armory, I start yelling.
“I need a medical team immediately!”(Samantha)
A few seconds later a group of doctors and healers rush toward my location and take Suzi away. Following after them, I watch as they try to keep Suzi alive.
______________________________________________________________________________
* The next evening -
After nearly of day of emergency care. Suzi is still in critical condition but, it seems that if her willpower is strong enough then she will stabilize and get better after a few days of rest. So now it’s the waiting game. Grabbing the phone that a medic gave me. I call Diuscrucis to tell him the current situation. Maybe he might be able to help.
“What do you want sis?”(Diuscrucis)
‘Deep breath’ “Diuscrucis. I have some bad news.”(Samantha)
“Samantha? Why are you calling me with Suzi’s phone? What happened?”(Duscrucis)
“........... Suzi is in critical condition.”(Samantha)
“...... ‘Deep breath’ Critical condition as in she is in the medical bay or starting to cause mass murder?”(Diuscrucis)
“Medical bay.”(Samantha)
After I said that there was silence for well over a minute. Then out of nowhere I felt death. Death was standing right behind me.
‘Low blood freezing voice’ “Tell me where I can find the fucker that did this to her.”(Diuscrucis)
